The Paper Isn't COMPLETELY Worthless

A few months after my wife and I were married, she said she wanted to take out a subscription to the Idaho Statesman.

I've NEVER been a fan of that paper, as I get MY news on the radio, which has always proven to be considerably more accurate. (Which is why the liberals want it shut down).

"Whatever makes ya happy, sweetie." And so she did, and for the next 3 years, she read it nearly cover to cover. I'd occasionally read the classifieds, the comics and work the crossword puzzles.

The paper is also handy for keeping paint off the garage floor when I'm out there spraying projects. Additionally, I spread it out on the table while I'm cleaning my guns.

Once in awhile I'd respond to some of the idiots the paper caters to in the "Letters to the Editor" Some got printed, most did not, as you'd expect from a left wing rag....even in a right wing state.

My wife is NOT political, but does not trust Obama, and as this campaign went on, she started to see for herself, what I have said all along, about the heavily biased coverage, the slamming political cartoons, and their printing of six or eight "pro-Obama" letters, for each one or two for McCain. (I had, by this time, nicknamed the Idaho Statesman as the "Boise 'Bama Booster.")

Anyway, she asked me the other day, if I would mind it, if she CANCELLED our subscription.

"Not a bit, babe!"

We'll just let the subscription run out, though, as it's almost over anyway, and it'll give me some time to collect enough issues for my paint and gun projects...........the Statesman isn't COMPLETELY worthless!

In a way, it's kind of "fitting" to me, using a left wing newspaper to soak up a little bore solvent and gun oil!

I get a REAL kick out of finding Budweiser beer cans, and shooting them FULL of holes when I go out to the pits.(Anheiser-Busch has donated a LOT of money to gun ban organizations).

Wendy's has too, but paper coke cups don't really make good targets.

Occasionally I get one of AARP's pieces of junkmail in my mailbox or on my E-Mail, and I ALWAYS respond to them that I don't support ANY franchise that donates money towards trying to take away my rights............(I PARTICULARLY enjoy responding to them through their regular mail advertisements, because they have to pay the postage BOTH WAYS......which by itself, won't break their bank account, but it makes ME feel better!

And so this morning, I am PROUD to say that the delivery days of the "Boise 'Bama Booster" to THIS address are numbered...........and I understand a TON of people have cancelled their subscriptions over this election alone, especially after their public endorsement for Obama (which we all knew anyway).

Fair and unbiased reporting, eh? Personally, I hope they lose so much business, that they go OUT of business!
